First produced in 24AW, this zip hoodie has further evolved this year, using the LW367 as its base pattern and newly reworked specifically for the 100-Year Brushed fabric. The pattern makes it easy to layer and versatile to style. This 100-Year Brushed fabric is created by taking our staple LW Light 30/9 TSURIAMI loopback and running it through the century-old brushing machine. With that, we hope it can establish itself as a new seasonal standard for winter. The reason is simple: we want to pass down this rare machine—likely the only one of its kind left in Japan—to the next generation, and we also want to share the passion and dedication of Mr. Tanaka, Executive Director of Yutaka Senko, who continues to operate it.

Available in three colors: Gray Melange two-tone, Navy, and Black. Sizes range from S to XL. Retail price is ¥37,400 (tax included). Sales begin on Thursday, September 11 at Sendagaya, Friday, September 12 in Osaka, and Saturday, September 13 in Fukuoka. As this is the first year of this model, we hope you’ll take the opportunity to try it on. We look forward to welcoming you in store!
